, CHARCOAL-STOVE.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 282,235, dated July 31, 1883.

Application filed Apr il 5, 1883. No modelJi T 0 all whom, it may concern: Be it known that I, EMANUEL M. STERN, of WValton, in the county of Delaware and State of New York, have invented a new and Improved Oharcoal-Stove, of which the following in a full, clear, and exact description.

The object of my invention is to provide a new and improved charcoal-stove of simple construction, which can easily and readily be connected with the stove-pipe of a heating or cooking stove, which charcoalstove is especially adapted for heating smoothing-irons, shoe-makers irons, book-binders dies, &c., and for cooking, heating glue, and various other like purposes.

My invention relates to improvements in charcoal-stoves: and it consists in the peculiar hereinafter more fully setforth, and pointed out in the claims. 7

Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification, in which similar letters of referenceindicate corresponding parts in all the figures.

Figure 1 is a perspective view of my improved charcoalstove. Fig. 2is a longitudi' nal sectional elevation of the same. Fig. 3 is a cross-sectional elevation of the same on the line w c Fig. '2. Fig. 4 is a perspective view of the, grated slide.

The stovebox A, made of sheet or cast iron, is provided on its upper edge with a flanged outwardly-projecting rim, B, adapted to receive the lower edge of a cover or hood, 0, for retaining the heat, whichcover is providedwith a suitable handle, 0, and directly below the rim a longitudinally-sliding plate, D, is held in the box A, which slide isprovided with a series of openings, which can be closed by the usual stove-covers, E. The slide is provided at one I11 place of the sliding plate D a grated slide, F, i can be used, and one can be replaced by the other. The slides rest on inwardly-projecting flanges a. A short distance above the floor or bottom of the box A a grate, G, rests on suitable inwardly-projecting flcnges, b, or lugs. At the bot- 7 tom of the front end the box is provided with a hinged or sliding door, H, having a draft-slide, H, of the usual construction. To the upper part of the rear end of the box A a piece of pipe, J, is attached, the free end of which can be coupled to a pipe, K, secured to a curved plate or slide, L, which can be held on a stove-pipe, M, by two clips or grooved flanges, N, held on the stove-pipe parallel with the longitudinal axis of the same. The stovepipe is provided with an opening between the clips or grooved flanges N. A slide, 0, is provided for closing the opening in the stovepipe when the charcoal-stove is not in use.

The ends of the box A are supported by two The stove is set up and used as follows: The

box A is placed 011 the platforms P, the legs of which have been adjusted the proper distance apart. The slide 0 is removed from the stovepipe M and is replaced by the slide L, provided with the pipe K, whereupon the ends of the pipes J and K are coupled, so that the products of the charcoal on the bottom of the box can pass into the stove-pipe M. The smoothing-irons or other articles to be heated are placed on the slide D or F, and the cover C is placed 011 the box A. The gases cannot escape into the room, as they all pass through the pipes J K into the stove-pipe. No heat is lost, the articles are heated very rapidly, and the dust and dirt are prevented from spread ing. The stove can be removed very easily and rapidly after use. My improved charcoalstove can beconnected with the pipe of any cooking or heating stove, and. occupies very little space when not in use.

The stove can be placed 011 any other support different from the crossed legs shown.

, If desired, the stove can be used without connecting it with a stove-pipe, the stove being placed in such a manner that the pipe J, or the pipe K,- attached thereto, projects out of a window, and the smoke and gas can pass through the said pipes J K out of the room.

In practice I shall place a pan of any approved form below the lower grate to receive any falling ashes or embers.

Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent 1. The combination, with the stove-box A, provided with the internal flange, a, extending entirely around it, of the sliding top plate, D, provided with openings therein closed by covers E, and handle D, substantially as described and for the purpose set forth.

2. In a charcoal-stove, the combination, with the boX A, having a flanged rini, B, of a sliding top plate for supporting the articles to be heated, and of the removable hood or top 0, substantially as herein shown and described, and for the purpose set forth.

The combination, with the platforms I, 15

of the crossed legs Q, provided with the threaded eyes R, and screw-threaded connecting-rod S, passing through said eyes, substantially as described, whereby the legs can be adjusted to or from each other for difi'erent- 2o R. MILLIGAN RUssELi, W'ILLIAM. H. CAR'ITER.
